Welcome!

Thanks for visiting our wedding website! We'll be updating it with more info as we get closer to our big day, so come back often.

Here's what we know so far:

WHERE AND WHEN 
Saturday, September 10th, 2011 (9/10/11)
1:30 PM Ceremony at Berger Park, Chicago (map)
5:30 PM Reception at The Portfolio Annex, Chicago (map)
You can RSVP below.

GETTING THERE
Chicago has two main airports: O'Hare and Midway. O'Hare is one of the busiest airports in the world, but certain "budget" airlines (like Southwest and AirTran) only fly into Midway. Whichever airport you choose, there are easy routes by expressway to downtown Chicago. If you're relying on public transportation, O'Hare is the better choice, though both are doable.

We are currently figuring out the parking situation for Saturday, but it looks like parking will be at a premium.  Carpooling is highly encouraged, and both the ceremony and reception are accessible via the CTA Red Line.

ACCOMMODATIONS
We chose to get married in Chicago because so many of our loved ones live there already, but we have a fair number of guests coming from out of town too.  Even locals like an excuse to stay at a hotel! Check out the hotels post for info.


WHAT TO DO IN CHICAGO
Coming into town for longer than Saturday? What a great idea! Chicago is an incredible city with lots of things to see, do, and eat. We'll list some of our favorites here.

GIFTING
We like hugs! Getting some from all of our loved ones on the 10th will make us very, very happy.
If you'd like to give us actual things, we are registered at Target (who seemed to have fixed their website) and Crate and Barrel.
If you'd prefer to help us have an adventure, you can contribute to our honeymoon fund.
